a hero and celebrity celebrated asked by the population. emmanuel, tell us a little bit more about the prisoners and am of the conditions that may be there in after the release. while i was mentioning among those are 215 people are, there were a 108 fighters of d as as a battalion. those other people are we so pictures are of haunting pictures of back in man, you know, does it massy ated faces of or defenders of the as of 1000 til plans they are really considered heroes dare. so the fact that even the commander in chief of, as of dennis provoked prague, bank, or has been liberated, is really comes as incredible news from the ukrainian side to 5 top commanders of reserve, or have been liberated under condition that they do not return on ukrainian territory they are, they are in turkey, well, where they will be though to connect with their families. that was da da. i was as

track and among her d prisoners exchange on the russian side was a ukrainian former low maker, accused of high treason. vito meadow choke with a vladimir putin closest ally emanuel was ukraine's negotiating stance, bolstered her all by their recent gains on the battlefield. while there's definitely a change of attitude when it comes to negotiations and negotiating and that abrasion of prisoners afore. because i remember when a victim of virtual cause made prisoner months ago, here in ukraine anatomy zaleski had immediately suggested prisoners exchanged a de cramming. i had completely rule that out at the time and now die. ukraine is making significant gains here underground during its counter offensive. it seems that tables have turned a little bit and that definitely ukraine has the upper hand. thank you. emanuel dw

correspondence manual. shes in hockey. as the prisoner swap was being conducted, russian police arrested more than 1300 people, protesting the mobilization of 300000 reservists to fight in ukraine. president putin says they are to bolster his forces. their western leaders say it's a response to russian losses on the battlefield. in a conflict that's been raging much longer than expected. yes, vladimir to dean's latest degree is not going unchallenged in russia, but the states crackdown is hard. nonetheless. i protest wandering groups as mass arrests have been made across the country, including in moscow. yes, well i'm not afraid and not afraid of anything. the most valuable thing that they

can take from us is the life of our children. i won't give them my child life found it wouldn't, has called the mobilization necessarily an urgent. he accused the west of crossing a line by providing sophisticated weapons for you, grin her to nepal. i'd like to remind you that our country also has various weapons of destruction and in certain aspects, even more modern weapons, the nato countries. if there's a threat to the territorial integrity of our country in order to protect russia and our people, we will certainly use all the means at our disposal. this is not a bluff about us, but is a disease. the announcement has also triggered an apparent exodus of people unwilling to join the conflict. many of these russians arriving in serbia, still fearful of speaking in opposition to the war. i. as me please you and i have read director because are my vermont and hope all is a seed. and i do have problem in my thinking about

a but i want to say i read on for you, great. i. i want to please somebody still pollution. the price is a one way flights from russia has been skyrocketing since bought in speech, and they're still selling out fast. i spoke a short time ago to d w. moscow bureau chief yuri were shadow who's now based in reagan latvia, after dw was forced to leave russia. he told us more about the descent in russia after president putin's column of reservists. a descent seems to be wide spread across russia and people absolutely nervous. and it said that that partial mobilization, it will affect 330-0000 reserve, is to which supposed to be just 1 point, one percent of the total number of those who can be called up. but the problem is that most in russia do not believe in partial mobilization and think that much more

men will be called up than announced as some are trying to leave the country. we just saw it in the report. our plane tickets have skyrocketed orders, go to an advocate, and the 3rd will probably try to get fake certificates about an illness in order not to be called up. i've got many friends in russia who are now leading in great fear, even though they have never served in the army. yury how estate media treating the call up and how does their coverage of putin move public opinion. well of course the russian state media leaf, no doubt to the, to the mobilization in russia is right and to necessary. oh, it's no wonder they absolutely aligned or what is about to dying at the front of a shadow to buy other specific warriors, such as what shall i do with my mortgage if i am called up and my employer officials officially fires me or will the reserve is to be treated financially the

same way in the same way as a professional soldiers. of course, all of this distracts from the real question, will as survive at all or will i have to die at the front, like thousands or of other russian soldiers interesting months. but these questions have been not asked are on russian television so far, but on the streets where yesterday thousands of people, protested sir uri, we're seeing descent. we've seats. we've even seen booked a flight on which many russians seem to be filling the country. is it likely that there'll be any tangible impact on putin or the conduct of the war in ukraine as a result of all this? it's pablo difficult to say and if and how many russians are going to take to the streets in the next days or some experts say that to this mobilization is at the beginning over the end of pollutants. korea, because of the mood in the country, can change completely on us. on the other hand,

to delancy and in mass protests coming because people are totally intimidated. i think, said the russians are just totally disoriented, disoriented to the war that seemed far away. somewhere beyond the board, us is now suddenly in the 0 own country and many who didn't want to know anything about as is so called special operation at many are now directly confronted with the war as for pollutants plans in ukraine. i think that a, with this mobilization has clearly shown that he has no intention of changing his plans of ending this war. on the contrary, his obviously preparing the russians, the russian people for a long war. thank you. you re did abuse era shadow in the latin capital reagan. thank you. now to some other stories we're following for you. european union foreign policy chief justice federal says the you will impose more sanctions on russia or else spoke after an emergency meeting of
